Song of Solomon 1
1 The Song of Songs, which pertaineth to Solomon.
Laa rhoek khuikah Laa he Solomon kah ni.
2 [SHE] Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth! [THEY] For better are thy caresses than wine:
Namah hlo tah misurtui lakah then tih a ka dongkah moknah neh kai m'mok lah sue.
3 Like the fragrance of thy precious oils, Oil poured out, is thy name, For this cause, virgins love thee.
Namah tah situi bo neh na then pai tih situi loh na ming a puem pai. Te dongah ni hula rhoek long nang n'lungnah.
4 [SHE] Draw me! [THEY] After thee, will we run! [SHE] The king, hath brought me, into his chambers. [THEY] We will exult and rejoice in thee, we will mention thy caresses, beyond wine, Sincerely they love thee.
Namah hnukah kai m'mawt lamtah yong mai sih. Kai he manghai loh amah imhman la n'khuen coeng. Rhoihui Namah ah ka omngaih uh tih ka kohoe uh. Nang kah hlo rhoek tah misurtui lakah ka poek uh tih vanat la nang n'lungnah uh.
5 [SHE] Swarthy, I am but comely, ye daughters of Jerusalem. [THEY] Like the tents of Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon.
Ka muem cakhaw Jerusalem nu rhoek tah Kedar dap banglam khaw, Solomon himbaiyan banglam khaw rhoeprhui mai.
6 [SHE] Do not look on me, because, I, am so swarthy, because the sun hath scorched me, —My mother’s sons, were angry with me, they set me to keep the vineyards, Mine own vineyard, have I not kept. …
Khomik loh kai n'hmuh tih ka muem dongah nim kai nan hmuh pawh? Ka manu ca rhoek te kai taengah sai tih misurdum aka hung la kai n'khueh uh. Kamah taengkah ka misurdum ka hung pawt ah.
7 Tell me, thou loved of my soul! Where wilt thou pasture thy flock? Where wilt thou let them recline at noon? For why should I be as one that wrappeth a veil about her, by the flocks of thy companions?
Ka hinglu kah a lungnah te kamah taengah thui lah. Melam na luem sak? Khothun ah melam na kol sak? Te boel tah balae tih na hui rhoek kah tuping taengah aka kulup bangla ka om?
8 [HE] If thou know not of thyself, most beautiful among women! get thee forth in the footsteps of the flock, and pasture thy kids by the huts of the shepherds. …
Huta rhoek khuiah sakthen te na ming pawt atah boiva kholaeh ah namah cet. Na maae-ca te aka dawn rhoek kah dungtlungim ah luem sak.
9 To a mare of mine, in the chariots of Pharaoh, have I likened thee, my fair one!
Ka cangyaeh namah tah Pharaoh leng dongkah ka marhang manu kam puet sak.
10 Comely are thy cheeks, with bead-rows, thy neck, with strings of gems.
Na kam te aitlaeng neh, na rhawn khaw oidik neh damyal mai.
11 [THEY] Rows of golden ornaments, will we make thee, with studs of silver.
Nang hamla sui aitlaeng neh cak hnathawn khaw n'saii bitni.
12 [SHE] By the time the king is in his circle, my nard, will have given out its fragrance:
Kamah kah rhai-ul tah manghai amah loh a caboei dongah a hmuehmuei la a khueh.
13 A bag of myrrh, is my beloved to me, between my breasts, shall it tarry the night!
Kamah hlo kah myrrah cun tah kamah ham ka rhangsuk laklo ah rhaeh coeng.
14 A cluster of henna, is my beloved to me, in the vineyards of En-gedi.
Kamah taengkah kamah hlo tah Engedi misurdum kah tlansum thaihsu ni.
15 [HE] Lo! thou art beautiful my fair one, lo! thou art beautiful, Thine eyes, [are] doves!
Ka cangyaeh tah na rhoep ne, vahui na mik khaw na sakthen ne.
16 [SHE] Lo! thou art beautiful, my beloved, Yea delightful! [BOTH] Yea! our couch, is covered with leaves:
Ka hlo nang tah na sakthen ne, mah kah soengca hingsuep khaw naepnoi bal.
17 The beams of our house, are cedars, Our fretted ceiling, is cypress-trees.
Lamphai tah mah im kah tungpum saeh lamtah hmaical tah mah kah paekhop saeh.
